From your post you clearly do reagrd yourself as better than everyone else. Your criticisms are all made out of the purest motives while the rest of us are "caustic and prone to hurling insults".
"On the other hand, if you become convinced of something through an experience received through the grace of God, the burning enthusiasm of this truth makes you want to share it freely."
No Andre. It doesn't, not usually anyway. Those who have genuinely had deep experiences tend to remain silent and to guard them closely. This is a well known spiritual principle, and one which Yogananda expounded. Spiritual experiences are discussed with the guru or his representative, but not openly.
It is a fact that on these message boards those who boast of their supposed spiritual experiences tend to be newcomers to this path. Those who have been on it for longest rarely write of their experiences. There may be exceptions but this holds true as a general rule.
Despite your personal criticisms of others, the fact remains that our comments on Paulsen have been backed up by a great deal of evidence and reasoned argument. You, and the other Paulsen admirers have been unable to refute what we say and simply fall back on your supposed spiritual knowledge, the implication being that you are so much more advanced than everyone else that you have received the true message regarding Paulsen.
I repeat my invitation to you, and anyone else to provide credible geological evidence in support of paulsens claims regarding Atlantis. So far none of you has been able to provide any.
I have a question for you Andre. Do you agree with Paulsens view that certain peoples, including Australian Aborigines are genetically inferior to such an extent that they cannot be regarded as Homo Sapiens, and they would need two to three million years of evolution to be the equals of modern humans?
